Re: Jango Fett...Dissapointing...hmmm...

In TBHW it also says Boba has amazing reflexes so it wouldnt just be about strength as Fetterthanyou said. Boba deffinatly has some strength he knockes Dengar across the cabin of slave 1 with one strike in Hard Merchandise and lets not forget Dengar has inharnced strength and speed.

Re: Jango Fett...Dissapointing...hmmm...

Yeah! When DID Bossk beat Boba? I didn't read of anyone saying that. Further, while he may not seem as impressive as Boba I would hardly call Jango disappointing. Jango did accomplish a lot in his time and Boba expaned from there.

Re: Jango Fett...Dissapointing...hmmm...

Well visably Jango looks much stronger. Of course Boba is cooler, but I'll have to give brute strength to Jango.

Look at the Terminator movies, and look at Arnold. Then look at Bruce Lee. First impression, Arnold is huge... ala he would kick Bruce Lee's ***? Never. It doesn't come down to strength or looks, it comes down to skills and tactics.

If you noticed, I didn't say Jango would kick Boba's ***. I merely said Jango was stronger than Boba. Perhaps you should pay attention to detail.

Re: Jango Fett...Dissapointing...hmmm...

bossk is a freak lizard with a great deal more strength than a human, wookies and trandoshians(not sure on spelling) are an even match. boba is a quick thinker, and will outsmart most opponents, jango is a bit more reckless, but anybody who can hold there own against obi, is a force to be reckoned with.

Jango is probably stronger than Boba ey where's the proof?

Re: Jango Fett...Dissapointing...hmmm...

i think jango would be a good mandalore and boba should go on doing his thing. also with the jedi head decorating the slave 1? "shudder, shudder" i thought boba would be the type not to have to show off his awsome skills, and i think he would have like collected there lightsabers or something

Well in Bloodlines it kind of shows what kind of Mandalore Boba is being....

he doesn't know the language for a start which although isn't a major problem shows how much he's actually interested in learning about his culture...He doesn't really go on campaigns with his Mandalorians or lead them as Mandalore the Ultimate or Indomtiable did.... (Apart from of course in the Yuuzhan Vong War)

He doesn't go to the planet very often.

It occurs to me that Mandalorians would prefer a life with the risk of being wiped out at every turn... Thats why when they were defeated in the Mandalorian Wars they did not hate Revan but instead admired him for beating them....Although he didn't wipe them out....

There wernt any other wars as far as i know.

Boba deffinatly has killed Jedi not necceceralyl with his bare hands but he could since his hand to hand combat skills are better than Jangos.

Actually, Jango was physically stronger than Boba is, and Jango's hand-to-hand combat skills are better. But I don't really like Jango much anymore..... he seems kinda weak to me now.....after what I read about him........

Now hold on just one bleeding moment. jango is NOT by ANY means even CLOSE to being stronger than Boba. Boba's an exact clone, he could only be stronger, since his strength training started at an earlier age than Jango. In fact, in the book jango fett vs. the razor eaters, Jango said Boba was stronger than he had been as a kid, so it only makes sense to assume Boba would be stronger than Jango as an adult as well. And as far as Bossk beating Boba goes, that's total B.S, in the shadows of the empire comic, Bossk tries to corner Boba, and Boba promptly socks Bossk in the face, quickly flooring him. What does that tell you about how strong Boba is?

NO, I meant it like if Boba and Jango were arm wrestling, Jango would win. Not in a fight, by any means, but Jango has stronger muscles. It even said that on the Wookieepedia and/or Wikipedia.

Yeah, so. Jango is still probably stronger than Boba.

Where is the proof that Boba is stronger? Also, Jango is stronger because I remember reading somewhere that Boba did no train that much physically because he believes in wit over muscle.

Re: Jango Fett...Dissapointing...hmmm...

I did not say there was proof Boba is stronger but being able to floor a Trandoshan isnt somthing you can do unless your strong. Boba is suposed to be a master of the fighting style terasi kai.

It definately does take some effort to drop a Trando. Especially one like Bossk.

And just because Boba decided to be smart, doesn't mean he wasn't strong. There is no evidence (that I know of, but I'm guessing it never says "Boba lifted the rock, but Jango could not have") either way on the subject of actual strength. But then again, it doesn't matter who is in fact stronger. Jango had his redeaming points, although Draco would argue that statement, and I wouldn't say he was "dissapointing." But don't start making up facts about how he is stronger to try to plead his case, use evidence.

ps. IG-88 I think you mean teras kasi. The unarmed figthing style that balances both offense and defense.

Re: Jango Fett...Dissapointing...hmmm...

I think peole are thinking that I'm saying Jango is better than Boba because he's stronger. I'm not. In fact I strongly support wit over muscle. Also just because I'm saying Jango is stronger doesn't mean that Boba is as weak. In fact Boba is almost as strong as Jango. Oh and for the record, Jango could beat up a trandoshan too. But I will admit this as well, Jango's overall talent isn't that great when compared to Bobas talent, but Jango was still a great warrior.

I didn't think that, I was just wondering how you knew that Jango is stronger. I just wondered where you got that information from.
